Penguin Shaped Christmas/Winter Card

Click following for OSAAT DT Challenge 196 Use a Digi.

I have the Winter Blues. My daughter headed back to college this morning. Missing her already.

Created this shaped Christmas/Winter card:
1. Create a Critter Cricut cartridge along with Gypsy to make shaped card
2. new Kraft cardstock  - I thought the blue pattern was perfect for the scarf
3. added twine to ends of scarf for fringe look
4. stamped Unity Stamp Co sentiment
5. punched out sentiment with Stampin' Up punch
6. recycled a wood coffee/tea stir stick for sentiment tag/sign post
